Effective assistant to avoid collisions, DETECTOR OF RADAR MER-VEILLE warns the sailor of the functioning of a radar in its close environment. A sound alarm associated with clairvoyants allows to locate the radar source and to appreciate the distance.

Since 1998, MER-VEILLEbenefited from several improvements, the last one integrates a more powerful microprocessor offering new functions: Acquittal: a key ( ACK) allows to eliminate radars detected by the sound alarm. The alarm will start again when the radar the signature of which was remembered gets closer or if a new radar is detected. Alarm clock / timer : programming of an alarm clock by slice from 10 minutes till 1 hour, manual stop. Local radar (Option) : the connecting of a small case to be arranged under the radome of the onboard radar (local antenna) allows the simultaneous functioning of MER-VEILLE and of the onboard radar. Output NMEA For connection to a PC. Sending of the characteristics of the radars received.

Switch 3 Positions 0 = Stop: device except tension. 1/2 = Lookout: the green led quickly flashes. The passage of a radar activates a short pip sound, the duration of the pips increases with the near of the radar and conversely. < Br > 1 = Watch: the green led flashes slowly. The passage of a radar activates a long sound pip. The listening of the sound pips allows the analysis of the distance.

Setting of the sensibility 1 to 10 miles according to the detected radars and the position of the antenna.

Sound Alarm 2 levels of duration of alarm according to the position of the switch: 1 = long sound pip in every passage. 1/2 = short sound pips indexed at the level of energy received.

Localization Leds 4 red Leds of localization of the radar: 1 lit led = radar in the indicated sector. 2 lit leds = radar between both sectors. 3/4 lit leds = very close radar. The central green led helps in the night-location of the red leds.
